Admiral of the fleet or fleet admiral (Russian: Адмирал флота, romanizedAdmiral flota) is the highest naval rank of the Russian Federation. It is the equivalent of the Soviet naval rank of Fleet Admiral and the present Russian rank of general of the army. The rank is roughly equivalent to the rank of "admiral" of other nations.
